A rare and unique home right in the heart of Gastown, this apartment is simply too cool for school. With stripped-down loft looks, it's been designed to be as comfortable as it is stylish. The building dates back to 1908 and was converted around fifteen years ago, complete with private parking, a communal courtyard and an outdoor seating area. Inside the apartment you're greeted with exposed brick walls, beamed ceilings and a polished concrete floor – it's a vision of industrial chic and maximalism. Open-plan and spacious, it's an easy place to feel at home in, with a comfy sofa, vintage writing desk by the window and some pretty stand-out decorative touches (yes, there really is a motorcycle and a totem pole). And we particularly love the library wall, complete with ladder. Kitted out with everything you'll need, there's a trendy new kitchen, along with a table and chairs for your meals, a big bathroom and a super comfortable bed. Step outside and you're surrounded by a whole host of great restaurants and bars, with Stanley Park and the seawall within a fifteen-minute drive away. Home truths: *This home isn't considered suitable for children *It comes with a designated secure parking spot – a rarity in the city *The outdoor spaces are communal *You'll have a laptop-friendly workspace at the desk *There's a shared entrance to the building *Technically a studio home, there's no separate bedroom here
